Handbook of Mathematical Functions

·2018·A Century of Excellence in MEASUREMENTS, STANDARDS, and TECHNOLOGY

Abstract

The Handbook of Mathematical Functions with Formulas, Graphs, and Mathematical Tables was the culmination of a quarter century of National Bureau of Standards (NBS) work on core mathematical tools. Evaluating commonly occurring mathematical functions has been a fundamental need as long as mathematics has been applied to the solution of practical problems. In 1938, NBS initiated its Mathematical Tables Project to satisfy the increasing demand for extensive and accurate tables of functions. The Handbook project occurred during the period when general-purpose electronic computing machinery was first coming into use in government research laboratories. A number of difficult mathematical problems that emerged in the course of developing the Handbook engaged researchers in the NBS Applied Mathematics Division for a number of years after its publication. Two of these are especially noteworthy, the first having to do with stability of computations and the second with precision.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
